Noir – Rosso IGT Veneto

Harvest: Picked up in crates at the end of September, selecting the grapes

Vinification: Different grape ripening periods, low vineyard yields and careful and separate vinification form the background to the creation of this product. This is how the different Merlot, Cabernet and Raboso varieties combine to give a complex and intriguing product, the expression of the territory where it is born. The Merlot grapes are harvested by hand and naturally dried for about 30 days and then vinified maintaining the fermentation temperature at 15-16° C. The Cabernet grapes are harvested by hand at full ripeness and immediately processed and put to macerate at low temperatures while the Raboso Veronese grapes are placed in crates, dried until December and then fermented at 15-16° C. Once the three wines are racked, they are let rest in French oak barrels with different capacities for about 14-16 months. At the end of this period the oenologist decides how to blend the 3 different wines.
